Transformation of the CPF: Syntec Numérique welcomes the adoption of one of its proposals

Following the announcements by Muriel Pénicaud, Minister of Labor, who presented the outlines of the future reform on Monday morning, Syntec Numérique can only welcome the impetus given by the Government to “agileize” our vocational training system and adapt it to the challenges of the ongoing digital transformation and the ensuing economic changes.

While nothing had really changed in the field of training for 50 years, due to reforms that were all too often optical, the government is now giving itself the means to achieve a historic reform.

In particular, this reform will mobilize new digital tools to better prepare employees for the transformation of skills required by a fast-changing economy, promote professional retraining and mobility from one sector to another or from one profession to another, and facilitate the return to employment.

Syntec Numérique is delighted that the French government has taken up its proposal to digitize the training savings account (CPF), turning it into a truly individualized, monetary training savings account, potentially topped up by both the company and the individual, and directly connected to the training on offer, thanks to an accessible mobile application.

In just a few clicks, users will be able to mobilize their rights, choose their training course and pay for it directly and without intermediaries. For each training course, the application will have to specify the rate of integration into employment and provide a range of information to help make these choices.

With regard to the governance of the future system, Syntec Numérique remains attentive to the transfer of the collection of training funds to URSSAF and the transfer of inter-professional equalization to the new France Compétence agency, i.e. the State, which will take control of the redistribution of the sums collected. For companies belonging to professional organizations such as Syntec Numérique, which are experiencing strong growth in their payroll, there is a risk that the sums collected will not be paid out in full.
